Hi,

During yesterday's open meeting I was asked to check into the schedule for the NCSG charter and its review before SF.

I communicated with Ray Plzak, the chair of the board's Structural Improvements Committee (SIC).  With the publication of the proposed constituency process for comment <http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-02feb11-en.htm> things have moved a step closer.  He is requesting that the Staff do an edit pass on our charter, as negotiated with the SIC to recommend any necessary changes required by these constituency process requirements.  He is also asking for them to proof our charter to find my remaining typos and inconsistencies.  He has asked that this be done in time so that the community review will be completed before the SF meeting. 

We will have a chance, probably brief given the timing, to review those changes before they go out for community review.  We will, of course, also be able to comment during community review and at the end of the day we will hold our own vote on accepting that charter after it has been approved by the Board. I am very much hoping, and a little bit confident, that at the end of the day we will have an approved charter that allows us to get on with working on policy.

I suggest that people review and comment on the Proposed constituency process.  While It differs somewhat from our language, I believe that it is essentially compatible with our proposed 2 stage process where the SG group has precedence in the decision making while allowing for Board oversight and final approval.

With optimism,

a.
